Notes & reviews

  • Johnny Damon ran back to the wall, leaped and had the ball in his glove briefly; as he came back to the ground, his glove hit the top of the wall and the ball popped straight up in the air; Damon hit the ground hurt and the ball landed on top of the padded wall, where it remained briefly before falling to the ground; Damon left the game with a sprained shoulder
  • 88 minute rain delay
